ALWAR: On Friday, Akbar Khan, 28, was lynched at Alwar in Rajasthan. A photo was taken by another person who was accompanying Akbar in a police van proved that he was sitting upright inside the van which has further raised doubts about the role of the Rajasthan Police in the attack.

Naval Kishore, who informed the police about the attack and also was with the victim in the van for most of the three hour journey, was shocked to hear doctor declaring him as dead.

NRK Reddy, Special Director General of Police, said, “We have no information yet about the victim being thrashed in custody, but yes, prima facie we have found that there was indeed an error in judgement in deciding what was important at that point.”

The doctor told NDTV that the postmortem report shows he died of internal bleeding after a severe beating. NDTV also quoted a woman witness saying, “beating the man in the vehicle and abusing him.”

“See I took this picture in the police vehicle. See, he looks fine,” said Naval Kishore indicating the man was fine before he was taken to the PS, their last stop before he was taken to the hospital at 4am.

The local hospital where Akbar was taken was a 20 minutes drive from the place where he was beaten by the mob around 1 am.

Assistant sub-inspector Mohan Singh was suspended and two constables were shifted to Police Lines in investigation into the matter.
